Topic: There Will Be Blood Forum: JoBlo
The ending didn't sit well with me. It felt like it belonged in a different movie. It was very catoonish and over the top. I had a few other problems with the movie that stops it from being a masterpiece but up until the ending, There Will Be Blood is nonetheless always compelling and compulsively watchable with a very strong, intense performance from Daniel Day Lewis and some truly stunning images. Technically speaking, the movie is brilliant. The cinematography, the score, so many frames of the movie are just STUNNING. Anderson's direction is almost flawless, he just makes one big miscalculation and that's the ending. The result is a flawed but overall powerful movie that with a less over the top/cartoonish ending could have been a masterpiece. It's not Anderson's best movie, that remains Magnolia, but it's still a pretty powerful and great, if flawed, movie. 8/10
